49ers waive Tolzien, four others

The San Francisco 49ers waived five players Monday, including quarterback Scott Tolzien.

The moves pared their roster to 85 players.

Tolzien served as the team's third-string quarterback the past two seasons. In two preseason games this year, he completed 18 of 34 passes for 188 yards with an interception.

The 49ers added Seneca Wallace last week, and coach Jim Harbaugh said Sunday he likes what he sees from Colt McCoy. The 49ers also B.J. Daniels in camp.

The team also waived running back D.J. Harper, linebacker Joe Holland, guard Al Netter and punter Colton Schmidt.
